FISH AND BOAT COMMISSION
Classification of Wild Trout Streams; Proposed Additions to List; April 2013
[43 Pa.B. 1058]
[Saturday, February 16, 2013]Under 58 Pa. Code § 57.11 (relating to listing of wild trout streams), it is the policy of the Fish and Boat Commission (Commission) to accurately identify and classify stream sections supporting naturally reproducing populations of trout as wild trout streams. The Commission's Fisheries Management Division maintains the list of wild trout streams. The Executive Director, with the approval of the Commission, will from time to time publish the list of wild trout streams in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. The listing of a stream section as a wild trout stream is a biological designation that does not determine how it is managed. The Commission relies upon many factors in determining the appropriate management of streams.
At the next Commission meeting on April 15 and 16, 2013, the Commission will consider changes to its list of wild trout streams. Specifically, the Commission will consider the addition of the following streams or portions of streams to the list:
County Stream Name Tributary To Section Limits Bedford Big Break Hollow Wallacks Branch Headwaters to mouth Bedford Ciana Run Rhodes Run Headwaters to mouth Bedford Deep Hollow Run Pavia Run Headwaters to mouth Bedford Pavia Run Bobs Creek Headwaters to the confluence with Deep Hollow Run Bedford Sugar Camp Run Raystown Branch Juniata River Headwaters to mouth Blair Diamond Run Bobs Creek Headwaters to mouth Bucks Cuttalossa Creek Delaware River Headwaters to mouth Carbon Fireline Creek Lehigh River Headwaters to mouth Clearfield Beaver Run East Branch Mahoning Creek Headwaters to mouth Clearfield Comfort Run North Branch Witmer Run Headwaters to mouth Clearfield Holes Run North Branch Witmer Run Headwaters to mouth Clearfield Hunter Run North Branch Witmer Run Headwaters to mouth Clearfield Raccoon Run North Branch Witmer Run Headwaters to mouth Clearfield Strong Run North Branch Witmer Run Headwaters to mouth Elk County Line Run East Branch Clarion River Headwaters to mouth Elk Fivemile Run East Branch Clarion River Headwaters to mouth Forest Bates Run Allegheny River Headwaters to mouth Forest Indian Camp Run Allegheny River Headwaters to mouth Forest Jones Run Allegheny River Headwaters to mouth Huntingdon McLain Run Little Juniata River Headwaters to mouth Luzerne UNT to Abrahams Creek (West Wyoming) Abrahams Creek Headwaters to Shoemaker Avenue Lycoming Dry Run Plunketts Creek Headwaters to mouth McKean Buck Run East Branch Clarion River Headwaters to mouth McKean Doe Run County Line Run Headwaters to mouth McKean Gum Boot Run East Branch Clarion River Headwaters to mouth McKean Smith Run East Branch Clarion River Headwaters to mouth Schuylkill Brushy Run Little Schuylkill River Headwaters to mouth Schuylkill Panther Creek West Branch Schuylkill River Headwaters to mouth Somerset Dalton Run Bens Creek Headwaters to mouth Sullivan Lick Creek (Cherry Mills) Little Loyalsock Creek Headwaters to mouth Sullivan Mill Creek (Millview) Little Loyalsock Creek Headwaters to mouth Sullivan Rock Run Little Loyalsock Creek Headwaters to mouth Sullivan Trout Run Little Loyalsock Creek Headwaters to mouth Sullivan Yellow Run Little Loyalsock Creek Headwaters to mouth Warren Bully Hollow Allegheny River Headwaters to mouth Warren Dennis Run Gordon Run Headwaters to mouth Warren Lenhart Run Allegheny River Headwaters to mouth Warren Little Run Allegheny River Headwaters to mouth Warren Pennsylvania Hollow Allegheny River Headwaters to mouth Warren Snow Run Allegheny River Headwaters to mouth Warren UNT to Allegheny River (RM 178.64) Allegheny River Headwaters to mouth Wayne Brace Brook Lackawanna River Headwaters downstream to the inflow of Brace Brook Reservoir Persons with comments, objections or suggestions concerning the classification of the streams listed may submit them in writing to Executive Director, Fish and Boat Commission, P.
